In Oregon, citizens came together to tackle youth homelessness. In Belgium, permanent panels like those in Ostbelgien are already shaping policy in groundbreaking ways—so much so that international outlets like The New Yorker are turning their attention to our model of participatory democracy.

Around the world, people are proving that participatory democracy isn’t just an idea—it’s a solution. And Belgium is showing how it can work at its best.

So, what’s next for you? Whether it’s joining a citizens’ assembly, sparking dialogue in your community, or simply staying informed, your voice matters in building a democracy that works for everyone.

Let’s make 2025 the year we turn bold ideas into action—together. 🌍

More and more people want their voices heard—even outside of election time. But how do we build a democracy that truly listens? 🤔

At G1000, we’re advocating for randomly selected citizen panels! 💬 These panels allow everyday citizens to discuss complex issues, creating solutions that reflect everyone.

[G1000 @G1000org]

88% of Belgians want to be involved in policy decisions, shows recent research with Indiville! 📊 It’s time to make citizen voices central—not just during elections, but every day. Your voice matters! 🗣️

Beste @GSels71, burgerpanels hebben het voordeel dat je beter geïnformeerd en genuanceerd kan zijn, en dat de burgers met onderbouwde adviezen kunnen komen. Referenda hebben inderdaad het voordeel dat je de hele bevolking betrekt, maar beslissingen worden zo minder geïnformeerd gemaakt. Bovendien is het polariserend, dus bij G1000 pleiten wij voor preferenda!

Wacht geen vijf jaar om je stem opnieuw te laten horen. Schrijf je in voor onze nieuwsbrief en strijd mee voor burgerparticipatie, ook na de verkiezingen.

Even after elections, the voice of the citizens must be heard. Newly elected leaders face the challenge of representing everyone in their community. At G1000, we believe listening shouldn’t stop on election day. Every voice counts, in and outside the voting booth. 🎙🗳️

“At local level, the last legislature was the most participatory in history. We saw a lot of experimentation, and a real laboratory at local level.” @EerselsBen in @lavenir_net
